Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, with reference to the personal support package in the Government's Improving Lives Green Paper, what the minimum number of minutes of support per year will be which people in the employment and support allowance work-related activity group will receive from their work coach.
The amount of time Employment and Support Allowance work-related activity group claimants (and their equivalent in Universal Credit) are supported by their work coach will be tailored to their individual circumstances and support needs. This may include being invited to work focused interviews with their work coach and also offered appropriate support through external provision.
